Is There a Better Way offers a range of support, training and consultation for schools.
Microboards Australia have worked with schools alongside their leadership teams or key practice leaders to continue to progress towards contemporary application of PBS, particularly for schools providing education for children with a disability and who may have complex communication needs.
Our experience and knowledge from both professional and family perspectives ensures that our support is both evidenced based and known to work. If you'd like to know a bit more about us and our approach please go to our about us page.
We offer a range of support to disability support providers, mainstream providers and schools to support building the knowledge, capacity and models of support practices across the disability sector. We have a wealth of experience in sector development and behaviour support models that we bring to this space, having held key roles for the previous 28 years in:
- Facilitation and development of the WA Positive Behaviour Framework
- Chair of Guiding Committee for the Positive Behaviour Framework
- Contributors to content of Code of Practice for the Elimination of Restrictive Practices
- Content developers and lecturer of the Post Graduate Certificate of Education: Behaviour support for people with complex needs, Edith Cowan University
- Member of the intellectual disability and health national alliance
- Co-developers of WA NDS Behaviour Practitioner Capability Training
- and many other roles to support sector development in relation to behaviour support
